Paddy Long’s is featured in Sports Illustrated

Paddy Long’s puts bacon on burgers, naturally. It offers a massive BLT featuring three different types of bacon. It mixes bacon into poutine. But I was most interested in just the bacon itself. So I ordered the bacon board appetizer, which comes with strips of Irish bacon, Danish bacon, jowl bacon and cracked pepper bacon. What arrived was a beautiful array of cured pork that could serve as a meal itself. (That deli in Eugene, Ore., that I wrote about last week claims Dr. Atkins would love its beef belly pastrami sandwich? No. He’d be all over this bacon board.)
